Welcome

Welcome...to our study of St. Charles history. This online course will prepare you for our upcoming fieldtrip, a walking tour of our local St. Charles's historical sites. You will be completing several assignments in this course. Please use the individual pages to find your assignments.

St. Charles is rich in history and many of our downtown buildings were used for some very historical purposes. We will be researching several locations and understanding the role that they played in history as well as what they are used for today. This trip back into history will allow you to identify exact locations of these buildings, find a current picture or take one of your own to upload and discuss the naming of monuments. I hope this experience brings you a little closer to our city's history and that you take some time to learn about the various other locations not listed in this project, but still as important to our local history.

Keep in mind that this course is an online course. You will not be interacting with the teacher live, only through email or question/discussion areas on our wiki. If you have a question about an assignement or an inquiry, please be aware that I will check the wiki once every 24 hours during the time that the course is available. I will be as quick as possible to answer, but you will still need to proceed with knowledge you have found out from other members in the class or from what you have discovered with inquiry or research.
